ISRO received praise for their work from across the country,The affair was a big event, with Prime Minister Narendra Modi attending the event with more than 70 school children. The event was held at the ISRO, Benagaluru.

What is the aim of the mission?

Chandrayaan 2 is a lunar mission that aims to explore the south polar mission of the moon. This feat is significant, since no country has gone to this region of the moon before.

It is a mission that spanned 48 days till landing. The earth bound spanned the first 23 days. The next 7 days (until the 30th day) saw it go into a lunar bound phase. The lunar bound phase lasted until the 45th day. Landing sequences are expected to end on September 7, the 48th day.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who was at the ISRO Centre in Bengaluru to watch the descent, applauded the effort made by India's top scientists, even though the outcome was disappointing.
